    • Serves as a key voice in identifying and escalating workforce risks, and partners with PHRBPs and HR leadership to drive continuous improvement in how the organization manages and learns from change.

    Regional HR Support: Employee Relations:

    • As one of the people team members on the ground, the SHRBP provides responsive, empathetic, and solutions-focused support to employees and people managers.
    • This role goes far beyond reactive issue resolution — the SHRBP proactively builds relationships that allow HR to anticipate challenges, foster psychological safety, and create an environment where every individual feels heard and valued. Working with people managers, the SHRBP steers the employee relations agenda, navigating complex grievances, workplace conflicts, and sensitive matters with sound judgment, impartiality, and a deep commitment to fairness.
    • People team leadership engagement visits and sessions are also coordinated by the SHRBP to strengthen organizational connectivity and reinforce a culture of trust and open dialogue.

    Compensation, Rewards & Offer Management:

    • The SHRBP ensures that every reward decision is grounded in the foundation’s total rewards philosophy.
    • This accountability extends to the end-to-end execution of salary adjustments, and promotion-related pay adjustments, as well as the facilitation of structured Annual Compensation Review calibration sessions.
    • The SHRBP ensures that compensation outcomes across the region reflect both the nuances of local markets and the integrity of the organization’s total rewards framework.
    • The SHRBP ensures that all associated compensation adjustments, including medical and pension amendments, are processed accurately and equitably.

    Diversity, Equity & Inclusion:

    • The SHRBP is a committed and visible champion of diversity, equity, and inclusion within the region.
    • By actively representing HR in DEI working group forums and driving inclusive workplace initiatives, the SHRBP ensures that equity and belonging are embedded into every people process — from hiring and compensation to development and recognition.
    • This is not a peripheral responsibility, but a thread woven through every aspect of the SHRBP’s work, reflecting a genuine conviction that diverse, inclusive teams are the foundation of high-performing, resilient organizations.

    Employee Advocacy & Experience:

    • Acts as a credible and trusted voice for employees, ensuring their perspectives, concerns, and experiences meaningfully inform leadership decisions and organizational direction.
    • Proactively identifies patterns and themes across employee feedback, engagement data, and informal signals to surface systemic issues — not just individual cases — and bring them forward with candor and care.

    Vendor Management & HR Operations:

    • The SHRBP manages strategic relationships with outsourced HR service providers, overseeing contract governance and holding vendors accountable to agreed service delivery standards.
    • By cultivating strong, trust-based partnerships, the SHRBP ensures the continuity, quality, and value of outsourced services that are integral to the region’s HR operating model.

    Your Experience

    • The ideal candidate holds a Bachelor’s Degree as a minimum, with a Master’s Degree in HR, Business, or a related field strongly preferred.
